You wont see it but lets pretend in the streets of the free world, people are crowded together singing the praises of Scotalnd Yard and burning symbols of those that wish to do us harm. And on the television sets of the guilty, dirty faces watch with great disappointment and saddness.

I sometimes think we might be in a stronger position to fight the war on the Jihadis if we weren't providentially detecting and dismantling their latest attrocities before they occur.


You want them to let the atrocities happen? Surely 9/11, the London bombings and all the other attacks are enough?

The British security services have had great success in thwarting attacks in Britain with the exception of the 7th of July last year. They need to be. The REAL question as I see is why Britain is such a nest of Islamic terrorists. Other countries have had security scares and attacks. But the British have foiled several that I can recall. A second bombing attack on London, A gas attack and several others I vaguely remember.

What is the problem with Britain and their Muslims?

anyone remmember how scared we all were watching those old movies of nazis or whatever carrying sub guns in their black uniforms and stopping and searching civilians boarding trains or at checkpoints at random?  Now....  we ask for it to happen to us.   Difference is that our black clad guys wear masks too.

Bingo. Fuel prices aren't the only reason airlines are going bankrupt.

"I think it is time for random full cavity searches berfore boarding planes."

A joke? Not necessarily if you think about it. That is a dangerous possibility.

Here's what I  think should be done:
1. Intern all muslims
2. give the muslim community 5 days to turn over bin laden and his Egyptian boyfriend and ALL other suspects.
3. If nothing after 5 days then drop a bomb on day 1 on the dome on the rock.
4. Day 2. Drop a bomb on Medina
5. Day 3.  Drop a bomb on Mecca
Issue an ultimatum to Saudi Arabia, Pakistan, Iran, syria and any others I've forgotten about and tell them that they are either for  us or against us and we expect/demand Arrests

This is not a time for appeasement, not a time to "sit round a table and talk about it" guns and bombs work well in getting Muslims to listen, lets play by their rules and strike them hard where ever they may be hiding.


Wow... we have become that which we abhor... terrorists.

Sandy, were our wartime actions in Dresden/Berlin/Tokyo acts of terrorism to you?

If I remember right, treason is the only action for which the death penalty can still be applied in the UK.

STRING THEM UP.

[edit] Oops wrong -

"The death penalty for murder was abolished nearly 40 years ago by the Murder (Abolition of Death Penalty) Act 1965, and replaced with a mandatory life sentence. The passing of the Act followed a great deal of debate both inside and outside Parliament over the death penalty.

The death penalty was retained for the capital offences of treason and piracy with violence, however it was abolished in 1998 under the Crime and Disorder Act.

In 1999 the home secretary signed the sixth protocol of the European Convention of Human Rights which formally abolished the death penalty in the UK and ensured it could not be brought back."

WTG Tony, you arnold.

Absolutely. Certainly there were targets of military value, but there was the added benefit of terrorizing the populace and testing the resolve of their governments.

Trust me, you saw through my sarcasm and we are BOTH on the same page.   A shame we're both correct though.

Agreed, and being in a state of declared war changes the definitions applied to one's actions. Right?

I definitely recall our president declaring war on all nations that support/harbor/encourage terrorists, and that congress voted nearly unanimously in support of that. Right?

I'm assuming you'll say "right" to those...so...follow the logic here...
How is dropping bombs on the cities of those, with whom you are currently engaged in a declared war with, acts of terrorism?

I guess if you say "wrong" to either of those then we do not have enough common ground to further explore this discussion.

[edit]Posted after reading Sandy's reply...
 While he and I disagree (strongly) I can fully respect Sandy's position on this and admire him for his intellectual honesty.

Have you declared war with those countries in question, I mean, officially?
